Abstract excerpt
Peroxisomal biogenesis disorders include Zellweger syndrome and milder phenotypes, such as neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy (NALD). Our previous study of a NALD patient with a marked deterioration by a fever revealed a mutation (Ile326Thr) within a SH3 domain of PEX13 protein (Pex13p), showing a temperature-sensitive (TS) phenotype in peroxisomal biogenesis. Clinical TS phenotypes also have been reported in several...
